Adrienne,
I'm reviewing the package today and have a some questions/comments for you.
1. Item no. 5 of John's 7/20/10 memo says that you will need to identify the wetland types onsite
(which it looks like you did) but also propose reference wetland monitoring locations that must
be approved by DWQ. Where's your reference wetland monitoring location? How often will it
be monitored? Who will perform the monitoring at the reference location and other locations
for evaluation of compliance with wetland standards? Please include more information in your
updated plan.
2. The western most edge of the 50' undisturbed buffer is labeled 20' vegetated buffer. This will
need to be corrected.
3. It looks like there are now 4 outlets from the holding pond. The plan says only 3.
4. The plan does not describe how water will be discharged to the outlets. Will all outlets
discharge at a certain water elevation? Will you pump to the outlet nearest the active
excavation/dewatering? Include more information on this.
5. You may want to consider renaming Figure 1 with a more appropriate title for what it depicts,
6. The plan's title page says it is for Modification NCG020637. I thought we were talking about
NCG020770 here? Let's make sure you've cleaned up any errors or inconsistencies at this point.
Please provide me with an updated O&M Plan by October 12kh.

Dear Mr. Brown:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on May 20, 2010 and
subsequent submittals of additional information, we are forwarding herewith the subject certificate of
coverage to discharge under the subject state - NPDES general permit. This permit is issued pursuant
to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement
between North Carolina and the US Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as
subsequently amended).
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after notice to the
Division of Water Quality. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or revocation and
reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
Please be aware that mine dewatering at your site has the potential to impact adjacent
wetlands. The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be found in
Part III, Section E of your permit. You must have an approved Operation and Monitoring Plan before
mine dewatering discharges occur at your facility. Discharging mine dewatering wastewater without
Plan approval will be subject to enforcement action. .
The current O&M Plan and Mine Pit SiLe Plan show the reference wetland location/well at
Proposed Monitoring Well #1. This location is in close proximity to the proposed excavation and is not
appropriate for use as a reference location. Thus, a reference wetland location with monitoring well
shall be added directly east of Proposed Monitoring Well #1 and immediately adjacent to the 25'
natural buffer of the property boundary. Additionally, all monitoring wells shall be 'installed by hand
auger in wetland and undisturbed buffer areas. Please make the above changes to the appropriate
documents and submit a revised Operation and Monitoring Plan and full set of plans for your facility to
Ms. Linda Willis of the Wilmington Regional Office within 30 days of your receipt of this permit. These
changes will constitute an approved 0&M Plan for your facility.
Please note that mine dewatering wastewater includes wet pit overflows caused solely by
direct rainfall and groundwater seepage for this type of mining operation. Any discharge of this water
(and any stormwater commingled with it) is subject to the effluent limitations in this permit. This
general permit allows the discharge of stormwater and certain types of wastewater from your facility.
In your application, you specified that only mine dewatering water would be discharged from this
facility. If separate point -source discharges of stormwater occur (i.e„ stormwater notcombined with

Cory,
I need to know status of the NPDES permit for Onslow Sands. The application was submitted to NC DENR in
Wilmington on April 12. The mining permit has been ready and waiting for quite a while now. It can't be issued until
the NPDES is issued.
My client has already lost business due to the delay in issuing the permit. In these economic times, it is not good to
be hurting businesses that are trying to do work,
We have already responded to two requests for additional information from your office. Hopefully there won't be any
more. Please issue the permit or let us know what is the holdup as soon as possible.
Thank You,

Mining Operations
In Phase I of mining, water that collects in the mine pit will be pumped out into a
constructed settling pond on the subject property. Sediment from the water will be
collected in the settling pond. The water will filter out of the basin through an outlet
spreader, ultimately flowing into nearby Rocky Run. As soon as the mine pit reaches
approximately one-half (0.50) acre in size, the pit will be converted into a settling pond.
Additional mining will be separated from the settling pond by leaving an earthen berm
between the areas. Water from the remaining mining activity will be pumped into the
settling pond so it can infiltrate back into the ground. Four (4) 24" corrugated plastic
pipes will be provided to handle overflow in case of storms or in case dewatering exceeds
the infiltration capacity of the settling pond. The spill way will also lead to the settling
pond used in Phase I of mining. The buffer areas around the settling pond will be
maintained so that rainwater and runoff water from the stockpiles will flow into the mine
pit. When mining is completed, the berm dividing the settling pond and the mine pit will
be removed so he entire mine area will form a pond per the reclamation plan in the State
Mining Permit Application.
Pumping Frequency
The mine in Phase I of the mining process will be pumped as needed to keep the area dry
for mining. Pump periods will be monitored by hour meters attached to the pumps. For
pumps with no hour meters a pump log will be maintained. These records will be used to
determine the Total Flow per the monitoring requirements in Table 1. If there is a
negative effect found on the hydrology in the area, the pumping frequency will be
modified accordingly.
Hydrology Monitoring
There will be 6 monitoring wells installed around the proposed mine area to monitor the
effects on the hydrology in the area. There will be one installed approximately 327'
southeast of discharge pipe #1 from the settling pond. The second will be installed
approximately 74' from the 92 settling pond discharge pipe. The third and fourth will be
installed 85' northwest and 416' southwest, respectively, from the #3 discharge pipe from
the settling pond_ The fifth well will be located 60' from the west side of the site and the
sixth well will be installed 35' behind the Pearson Family Cemetery. All six wells will
be installed at a depth from the wetland line of at least 10'. The wells will be either 2"
(hand auger) or 1 '/4" (jet) in diameter at a depth of 7'-10' b.g.s. (below ground surface)
using standard well screen. The well riser will be approximately 3' --- 4' a.g.s. (above
ground surface) so that the wells will be easy to see when sampling.
The well monitoring shall use automatic monitoring devices set to record water levels
four times a day (4 x day) for the first six months and then checked daily upon written
agreement of DWQ if the data demonstrates no significant effect on hydrology. The
monitoring will continue to be weekly after dewatering until the groundwater levels are
up to previous levels pre-dewatering.

Should shallow groundwater data show trends (i.e., > 20%) in deviation from reference
wetland hydrology during normal rainfall years, show increases or decreases in shallow
groundwater levels, and/of show wetland standards are compromised for supporting
wetland hydrology (15ANCAC 2B .0231), corrective action measures will be put in
place at the direction of DWQ.
Referenced monitoring well location is Proposed Monitoring Well #1.
Structural/Non-Structural BMP's .
The site contains one settling pond used to accept the excess water from the mine. The
settling basin contains four (4) 24" corrugated plastic pipes which allows the excess
water to flow via hose or pipe into four (4) separate outlet spreaders adjacent to the
wetlands. Additionally the mine is setup to act like a settling pond before the excess
water is pumped to the settling pond. Mining occurs in the middle of the mine pit with
the -pump will be located on the -north end of the -pit. By locating the pump at the farthest
point away from the mining, it allows the most possible sediment settling before the
water is discharged.
There is one above ground fuel tank kept on site to refuel the on -site equipment. The
fuel tank is surrounded by a dirt dike to contain any possible spills. Additionally the fuel
pump contains a fuel shut off valve and the pump and hose are in new condition.
All vehicle maintenance -will occur near -the office and away from -the mine pit or any area
which might flow into the mine pit.
Maintenance
The settling pond will be inspected monthly and within 24hrs after any quality storm
events. The settling pond will be checked regularly and sediment will be removed as
needed. The pond water level will be maintained at the invert of the outlet pipe or lower
and a maximum depth of 20'. The settling pond and outlet pipes will be monitored
accordingly and sediment will be removed as needed. The outlet pipe will be maintained
to specifications of the Mine Plan. The outlet pipe will be checked on a regular basis and
maintained as needed.
Discharge Monitoring
Discharge monitoring and reporting will be performed as specified in Table 1. If the
effluent limitations are greater than specified in Table 2 the monitoring frequency will be
modified to monthly monitoring of the effluents.

Monitoring Reports
Discharge monitoring results in accordance with the terms of this permit, NCG020000,
shall be submitted no later than 30 days from the end of the monitoring period. Duplicate
signed copies of all reports required shall be submitted to the NC DENR Division of
Water Quality, Water Quality Section, ATTENTION: Central Files, 1617 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617.
Jeff Brown will report orally any noncompliance within 24 hours Jeff Brown becomes
aware of the noncompliance.

point away from the mining, it allows the most possible sediment settling before the
water is discharged.
There is one above ground fuel tank kept on site to re -fuel the on -site equipment. The
fuel tank is surrounded by a dirt dike to contain any possible spills. Additionally the fuel
pump contains a fuel shut off valve and the pump and hose are in new condition.
All vehicle maintenance will occur near the office and away from the mine pit or any area
which might flow into the mine pit.
Maintenance
The settling pond will be inspected monthly and within 24hrs after any quality storm
events. The settling pond will be checked regularly and sediment will be removed as
needed. The pond water level will be maintained at the invert of the outlet pipe or lower
and a maximum depth of 20'. The settling pond and outlet pipes will be monitored
accordingly and sediment will be removed as needed. The outlet pipe will be maintained
to specifications of the Mine Plan. The outlet pipe will be checked on a regular basis and
maintained as needed.
Discharge Monitoring
Discharge monitoring and reporting will be performed as specified in Table 1. If the
effluent limitations are greater than specified in Table 2 the monitoring frequency will be
modified to monthly monitoring of the effluents.
Monitoring Reports
Discharge monitoring results in accordance with the terms of this permit, NCG020000,
shall be submitted no later than 30 days from the end of the monitoring period. Duplicate
signed copies of all reports required shall be submitted to the NC DENR Division of

Water Quality, Water Quality Section, ATTENTION: Central Files, 1617 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617.
Jeff Brown will report orally any noncompliance within 24 hours Jeff Brown becomes
aware of the noncompliance.

Adrienne,
I support Cory's request. Cory has calculated the cone of influence to be quite significant. The wetlands are only SO'
from the excavation area so that warrants an O & M that will require some monitoring wells to demonstrate wetland
hydrology is protected. Please work on the additional information requested by Cory as soon as possible to avoid a
return of the application.

Cory,
In response to your 2nd request for additional information pertaining to Onslow Sands, Inc one
of the alternative solutions suggested by you calls for the design and implementation of an extensive
wetland rehydration and monitoring program as part of a detailed Pumping 0&M plan, which we don't think
is required.
Please see the email below from Linda Willis dated March 12, 2010.

The level spreader locations look good. Make sure LS-4 doesn't create nuisance conditions for the cemetery. I don't
think we need to worry with monitoring wells. We can look at the wetland areas during inspections and determine if
the soil conditions are maintaining hydrology.
Thanks
LW
As you can see from the email it doesn't seem like we need to install the monitoring wells due to the
elevation difference on the proposed mine site. The area to be mined sits at about an elevation of 36', the
wetlands start at about 29' down to the property line which sits at about 25' down by Rocky Run creek.
There are no ditches but the ground is contoured so the discharge will channelize from the outlet spreaders
back into the wetlands, which will not be creating a negative impact on the surrounding wetlands.
Would you like me to submit a revised Pumping O&M plan with the above details formatted into a section
supporting our argument of why we don't need or require monitoring wells or an extensive wetland
rehydration and monitoring program?
Please advise.

RE: Comments on wetland monitoring plan frr Onslow Sands project, Onslow County)
Staff from the Wetlands Program Development Unit -who are familiar with wetland monitoring
have reviewed the "Operation and Monitoring Plan -- Onslow Sands, Inc. Bellmont Avenue" prepared by
Walton Engineering as revised on June 24. 2010. We believe that the plan needs major changes as
outlined below before approval by DWQ in order to provide assurance that wetland standards (15A NCAC
2B..0231) are met. Please contact rrie at 733-9646 or Rick Savage at 715-3479 if you have any
questions.
1. Additional monitoring wells — Two (2) additional wells need to be established in the wetland near
the "Pearson Family Cemetery." and on the west side of the site since it is possible that.
groundwater withdrawal could result in alteration of the hydrology for these wetlands.
2. Relocated well — The well (Proposed Monitoring Well #2) is located directly downslope from
Discharge Pipe #2. This well must be relocated away from the discharge in order to be
representative. We suggest a location midway between Discharge Pipe #2 and Discharge Pipe #
3. Additional discharge location for water — We suggest that an additional discharge location be
added to the plan on the west side of the site in order to provide assurance that the hydrology of
this area is not altered. A located near (but not directly upslope from) Proposed Monitoring Well #
4 would be appropriate.
/4. Well monitoring — Well monitoring shall use automatic monitoring wells set to record water levels
four times a day for the first six months. The frequency can then be lowered to daily upon written
agreement of DWQ if the data demonstrate no significant effect on hydrology.
X 5. Reference wetlands — The applicant will need to identify the wetland types on site (using.the
recently adopted NC WAM wetland types — see weblink
athttp://portal.nodenr.org/c/document library/get file?uuid=d93ece45-aeb5-420c-bcd5-
07698149711b&groupld=38364) and then propose monitoring locations (at feast one for each
wetland type) near the proposed mine. DWQ will need to approve those locations in writing.
6. We suggest that the applicant propose hydrology criteria which shall be maintained compared to
the reference wetlands. The criteria should be a percentage deviation from the water level shown
in the reference wetlands and DWQ will need to approve that criterion.
Please let us know if you need additional information.

WALTON ENC7INEERINC,
June 24, 2010
Mr. Larsen,
I have reviewed in detail the Iateral effects predicted in your analysis by the Skaggs Method.
I have determined that two important input values are significantly different from actual
conditions at the subject site.
The Weighted Hydraulic Conductivity input value was 12.5125 inlhr, which correlates to
coarse -grained well -sorted sand. That value was based on the Soil Survey properties for
Baymeade soils. The Soil Survey data only goes to a depth of 78" or 6.5'. The water table
starts at 5'. The mine depth will be 20'. Therefore the Soil Survey values do not apply to the
zone being modeled. The actual soil hydraulic conductivity should be that of a loamy sand or
fine sand based on my field evaluation of texture from excavated samples. The correct vale
should be about 118 in/day, which equals 4.92 in/hr. The larger the Hydraulic Conductivity,
the larger the predicted lateral effect by the Skaggs Method. When I reviewed our calculations
prior to original submittal, I missed the fact that we used Soil Survey permeability values for
the Hydraulic Conductivity at depths greater than those of the Survey.
The Drainable Porosity used was 0.035, which correlates to the low end of clays/silty-clays.
The actual Drainable Porosity should be on the order of 0.15 to 0,18 which ranges from the
high end of well -structured loams to the low end of sandy soils. The average of these values is
0.165. The larger the Drainable Porosity, the smaller the predicted lateral effect by the Skaggs
Method.
I have attached modeling using the Skaggs Method with revised inputs per above Using the
revised inputs, the model predicts a lateral effect of 192.5 feet.
Also, I have compared the results of Modeling with the Skaggs Method and the Ellipse
Equation. They produce very nearly equal results given equal inputs.

Onslow Sands, Inc, COC No. NCG020770
Onslow County
The Division of Water Quality's Stormwater Permitting Unit has reviewed the information submitted on behalf
A.,.
of Onslow Sands, Inc. received by DWQ on June 10, 2010 andt,has•determined that the application is not yet
comple�e.,.The following information is needed to continue the stormwater review:
1. The wetland setback requirement calculated utilizing the Skaggs Model for borrow pits was not determined
correctly. A revised model summary is attached and shows a lateral effect of 666 ft vs the 61 ft originally
calculated. Depth to restrictive layer was assumed to be equal to the total mining depth, and the
drainable porosity was revised per the model's recommendation for this value. The new lateral effect
clearly shows that dewatering operations have the capability to negatively impact a very large tract of
surrounding wetlands and increases our concern that dewatering, as proposed, cannot occur without
wetland impacts,
Based on the size of the proposed mine, a setback of this size is not feasible. Potential alternatives to the
setback requirement may include (1) wet mining of the site to minimize wetland impacts or (2) design and
implementation of an extensive wetland rehydration and monitoring program as part of a detailed
Pumping O&M Plan. It should be noted that the current Operation and Monitoring Plan does not contain
the necessary components or sufficient detail to satisfy the requirements of alternative 2 above.
Please revise mining plans and the O&M plan according to one of the alternatives above and resubmit for
further consideration, if desired.
The requested information should be received by this Office by July 9, 2010, or the application will be returned
as incomplete. The return of a project will necessitate resubmittal of all required items, including the application
fee.

Request for Additional Information
Onslow Sands, Inc, COC No. NCG020770
Onslow County
Cory,
Please see the responses to your proposed questions below.
DENR - WYA RTOZITY
1) Please provide settling basin sizing information and a section drawing in addition to a
discussion on how basin discharges will meet the effluent limitations found in Table 8
of NCG0200000.
The sediment basin is designed to capture about 80 percent of the silts, sands
and clays suspended in the captured runoff water; leading to the assumption
that basically any sands or gravel coming into the basin will settle out near the
basin inlet. Therefore most of the sediment will not leave the site due to the
dewatering process taking water from the top of the water surtrce and not from
the "settling" bottom. Based on Stokes Law the sediment particles will settle
out due to "gravitational settling". This is based off of a suspended particle's
diameter and density plus the viscosity of the basin water, which is determined
by the water's temperature. It is assumed that there is no turbulence in the
water.
- A cross-section of the settling pond can be found on Figure 2
2) Please submit your Skaggs method inputs and outputs/calculations used for
determining wetland setback distances.

3) More information on the estimated dewatering rate is required. Please provide a more
detailed discussion of the calculations performed to arrive at an estimated withdrawl
rate of 13,437 gpd.
- Bower, 1978, Groundwater Hyrdology, McGraw-Hill, Inc., New York was
referenced for the calculations. The modeling uses Darcy's equation for steady
flow in an unconfined aquifer with the Dupuit-Forchheimer assumption of
horizontal flow. For more clarification see the following:
- K = the average hydraulic conductivities of granular materials (mlday)
- H = the depth from the top of the water surface to the confining layer Z- .'
- Pit/Well radius, rw = based on design elements
- hiw = assumed
- H2 = the total depth minus the DTW
- DTW = taken from field observation and soil borings
- TD = total depth of the pit based on design
- r2, hw and Q (gpd) are calculated using the following formulas
i. r2 = 500rw
ii. hw= [(h2-hiw)(hiw/h2)]^2.4I(1+5(rwlh2))*(1+0.02*LN(r2/rw))+ hiw
iii. Q (gpd) = 7.48*(3.142*K*(h2^2-hw^2))ILN(r2/rw)
4) Level spreaders used to rehydrate surround wetlands with diffuse flow should be
designed in accordance with Chapter 8 of the BMP Manual.
We are not utilizing level spreaders as our outlets for diffuse. We are
anticipating the use of outlet spreaders due to the natural topography of the
site. No channelization should occur allowing even distribution of water back
into the wetlands. I've enclosed DENR's Riprap Outlet Protection design
worksheet for this reason.
5) Please send copies of all mining plan sheets including cross -sections to supplement
Figure I. Also, revise Figure 1 to show a 50' undisturbed wetlands buffer instead of
20' — 50' vegetative and unexcavated buffers.
- I've replaced the word "unexcavated" with "undisturbed" on Figure 1, Onslow
County requires a 20' buffer and DENR requires a 50' buffer; both are denoted
on the plan. The 20' buffer required from Onslow County is incorporated
within the 50' buffer required for DENR.

waters is 20 mg/I and 10 mg/l for trout waters and Primary Nursery Areas (PNAs)
2. Designated swamp waters can have a pli as low as 4.3 if due to natural conditions.
3. No limit in the effluent discharge applies, but turbidity in the receiving waters shall not exceed levels
described below as a result of wastewater discharges.
4. The total volume of treated wastewater for all discharges combined shall not exceed So percent of the
total in -stream flow of the receiving waters under 7Q10 conditions in HQW waters, including trout and
PNA waters.
The discharge shall not cause the turbidity of the receiving water to exceed Water Quality
Standards:
10 NTU freshwater streams, lakes, and reservoirs designated as trout waters
25 NTU all lakes and reservoirs, and all salt waters
50 NTU all other streams and surface waters
If turbidity of the receiving stream exceeds these levels due to natural background conditions, the
existing turbidity level shall not be increased. If the turbidity exceeds these levels as a result of
wastewater discharges, the permittee must immediately institute monthly monitoring for all
parameters. The permit allows the permittee to monitor turbidity in the effluent or up- and
downstream of the discharge point; however, the permittee should consider regular turbidity
sampling up- and downstream of the discharge(s) when feasible to ensure compliance with water
quality standards.
The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings of wastewater discharges in accordance with
the schedule specified in Table 9. Failure to comply with quarterly monitoring in accordance with
permit terms for any one calendar quarter immediately triggers monthly monitoring for all
parameters for the remaining permit term.

Stokes' Law
In class we have talked about the efficiency of air, water and ice to transport sediment. The main
difference of the three transport media is their density p and viscosity P. Air has both, the lowest
density and viscosity and is the least efficient transport medium. Ice, on the other hand, has the
highest values of p and µ, and is most efficient in transporting sediment.
The transport efficiency of a substance depends on how fast bodies fall through the medium. Things
fall very fast through air, slower through water and extremely slowly through ice. The free fall
velocity is given by Stokes' Law, which describes how fast spherical bodies fall through viscous
liquids, assuming laminar flow. For spherical Stokes' law can be written as:
where
v 18
(P, - Pr.-)gd z
v = settling velocity
g = gravitational acceleration g = 9.80 rnls`
A = density of dropped object
d = diameter of dropped object
pF = density of fluid
µ = viscosity of fluid
Remember that this relationship only holds for laminar flow, that means the fluid moves around the
object in an orderly, non -turbulent way. The Reynolds Number Re describes whether (low conditions
around a sphere are laminar or turbulent. RC can be calculated from:
R`dvP,
fl
Flow conditions are
laminar for R< < 500
turbulent for RC> 500
The exact values depend on the flow conditions and the geometry of the setup. The point top
remember is that low Reynolds numbers are more likely to translate into laminar flow conditions.
Stokes' Law is only valid for "low Reynolds numbers.
In this homework problem you are measuring settling velocities for steel balls dropped in glycerine
as a function of particle diameter. The experimental setup is in the physics lab right next to the -Rock
of the Week, so you can do both exercises in one day.

Dear Mr. Rogers:
Dee Freeman .
Secretary
The Division of Water Quality's Stormwater Permitting Unit has completed a preliminary review of the
permit application for Onslow Sands, Inc. received by DWQ on May 20, 2010 and has determined that the
application is not complete. The following information is needed to continue the stormwater review:
1. Please provide settling basin sizing information and a section drawing in addition to a discussion on
how basin discharges will meet the effluent limitations found in Table 8 of NCG020000.
2. Please sr-:bmit your Skaggs method inputs and outputs/calculations used for determining wetland
setback distances.
3. More information on the estimated dewatering rate is required. Please provide a more detailed
discussion of the calculations performed to arrive at an estimated withdrawal rate of 13,437 gpd.
4. Level spreaders used to rehydrate surrounding wetlands with diffuse flow should be designed in
accordance with Chapter 8 of the BMP Manual.
5. Please send copies of all mining plan sheets including cross sections to supplement Figure 1. Also
revise Figure 1 to show a 50' undisturbed wetland buffer instead of 20'-50' vegetative and
unexcavated buffers.
This request for additional information is in response to a preliminary review. The requested information
should be received by this Office by July 2, 2010, or the application will be returned as incomplete. The return of
a project will necessitate resubmittal of all required items, including the application fee.
Please reference COC No. NCG02077.0 on all correspondence. If you have any questions concerning this

• Point source discharges of stormwater and wastewater from in -stream sand mining operations (i.e., sand
dredging or dipping operations)
For new mining sites that require an authorization to construct (ATC) wastewater treatment facilities: This
NO[ is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATC for new wastewater treatment facilities. ATC requests must be
submitted at least 90 days prior to construction.
For existing mining sites that require an Authorization to Operate (ATO) wastewater treatment facilities:
This NO] is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATO for wastewater treatment facilities in place.
Construction, modification, or installation of any new treatment components at an existing site requires an
ATC. (if the site is already covered by NCG020000, the ATC request may be submitted without an NOI).
Some wastewater treatment facilities used to treat or recycle wastewater at mining sites will require an ATC rp for
to construction per 15A NCAC 2H .0138. Please see the NCG020000 General Permit for details about which
treatment facilities require an ATC (summarized in Table 1 below). The authorization to construct or continue
to operate will be issued at the same time as the Certificate of Coverage (COC) for the NCG02 permit. Design of
treatment facilities must comply with requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0138 & .0139.
Construction of wastewater treatment facilities subject to the ATCIATO requirements in the NCG02 pennit
at new orexisting mining sites requires submission of three (3) sets of plans and specifications signed

Re: NPDES application on behalf of Onslow Sands Inc. Sand Mine
To Whom It May Concern,
This letter serves as the narrative description for the subject NPDES Application. The
application is being made for the purposes of sand mining on a 10.19 acre tract of land zoned
RA. All mining will occur on a 6.53 acre area of land. The site is off of Bellmont Avenue in
Onslow County. Acreage was taken from a survey done by Atlantic Surveying, P.A. The
acreage was determined and checked for accuracy using a computer/CADD program analysis.
Impacts to surrounding and adjoining properties will be minimized as follows: During
mining, in order to minimize erosion, the mine slope and all stock -pile and buffer areas will
be sloped so that water and sediments will flow back into the mine pit. Silt fencing will be
used as needed around the wetlands 50' buffer; however it is not anticipated on other areas of
the pit. The mining process will consist solely of digging unconsolidated material (sand only,
no stone), loading the material into dump trucks and hauling off -site. Equipment to be used
will be limited to excavators, front end loaders, and dump trucks. There will be no screening,
crushing, explosives or other such operations. During mining areas of active excavation will
be kept dry by pumping water into a settling pond. Therefore the active excavation areas
could be described as "dry" mining. The settling pond size shown will be approximately .5
acres. The area to be mined will be reclaimed as an aesthetic pond, for private recreational
use, according to the reclamation plan. The pond will result as a natural occurrence of the pit
being below the water table with the total depth being 25 feet below grade and the water table
being approximately 24 feet below grade. Some areas in the finished pond may be less than
15 feet deep to provide structure for fish. Slopes above the water table will be seeded with
grass. Seeding will be done in accordance with seeding specifications included in this report.
A proposed reclamation plan has been included. No wastes will be produced at the site except
due to equipment maintenance. Such wastes will be properly disposed of at county waste
collection centers.
Hydrology in the area should not be affected. Water will be pumped into a .5 acre holding
pond, during mining, so that the water can percolate back into the ground. The holding pond
will be separated from the mine area. Based on design calculations, a .5 acre
infiltration/retention pond will be sufficient to infiltrate all water pumped from the mine pit,
excluding rainfall and side -wall infiltration. Overflow from the pond will discharge at a
Tel: [phone] Po Box 895,13urgaw, North Carolina, 28425 Fax: [phone]

WALToNENGiNEERiN
controlled rate into the wetlands leading into Rocky Run. Most of the water removed from the
mine pit will infiltrate back into the ground through discharge into the on -site wetlands.
The proposed mine will not create a public nuisance because it is over 500 feet from the
nearest residence and water supply well. The subject site is also surrounded by woodlands and
is not visible to any of the surrounding property owners.
The only access to the project site is at the front of the property where a 50' construction
entrance will be in place. The access road will be blocked by a locking cable or steel gate
when not in use.
Warning signs will be posted along permitted project boundaries. No utilities or structures
(except for possibly a mobile trailer/office) will be required for the completion of the project.
Onslow Sands Inc. will provide all necessary equipment.
The impact to the community will be minimal. As can be seen from the site location map the
work will occur at a significant distance from surrounding residences. As such, noise,
vibration, or any other such consequences of equipment operation pertinent to the project is
expected to have minimal or no impact the community. The operation hours will be place
Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m, except for instances where extra hauls are
required resulting in alternative hours of 6 a.m. to 6 a.m Monday thru Sunday, which are
expected to be minimal. The project is planned for duration of ten years and will be
undertaken by Onslow Sands, Inc. Traffic impacts are expected to be minimal.
If you have any questions or need additional information please call me at 910-259-4800.

Mining Operations
In Phase I of mining, water that collects in the mine pit will be pumped out into a
constructed settling pond on the subject property. Sediment from the water will be
collected in the settling pond. The water will filter out of the basin through an outlet
spreader, ultimately flowing into nearby Rocky Run. As soon as the mine pit reaches
approximately one-half (0.50) acre in size, the pit will be converted into a settling pond.
Additional mining will be separated from the settling pond by leaving an earthen berm
between the areas. Water from the remaining mining activity will be pumped into the
settling pond so it can infiltrate back into the ground. Three (3) 24" corrugated plastic
pipes will be provided to handle overflow in case of storms or in case dewatering exceeds
the infiltration capacity of the settling pond. The spill way will also lead to the settling
pond used in Phase I of mining. The buffer areas around the settling pond will be
maintained so that rainwater and runoff water from the stockpiles will flow into the mine
pit. When mining is completed, the berm dividing the settling pond and the mine pit will
be removed so he entire mine area will form a pond per the reclamation plan in the State
Mining Permit Application.
Pumping Frequency
The mine in Phase I of the mining process will be pumped as needed to keep the area dry
for mining. Pump periods will be monitored by hour meters attached to the pumps. For
pumps with no hour meters a pump log will be maintained. These records ill be used to
determine the Total Flow per the monitoring requirements in Table 1.6f there is a

No monitoring wells will be required for the project site because dewatering will occur
via outlet spreaders and will be in synch with the natural topography of the site.
Structural/Non-Structural BMP's
Al. T
The site contains one settling pond used to accept the excess water from the mine. The
settling basin contains three (3) 24" corrugated plastic pipes which allows the excess
water to flow via hose or pipe into three (3) separate outlet spreaders adjacent to the
wetlands. Additionally the mine is setup to act like a settling pond before the excess
water is pumped to the settling pond. Mining occurs in the middle of the mine pit with
the pump will be located on the north end of the pit. By locating the pump at the farthest
point away from the mining, it allows the most possible sediment settling before the
water is discharged.
There is one above ground fuel tank kept on site to re -fuel the on -site equipment. The
fuel tank is surrounded by a dirt dike to contain any possible spills. Additionally the fuel
pump contains a fuel shut off valve and the pump and hose are in new condition.

All vehicle maintenance will occur near the office and away from the mine pit or any area
which might flow into the mine pit.
Maintenance
The settling pond will be inspected monthly and within 24hrs after any quality storm
events. The settling pond will be checked regularly and sediment will be removed as
needed. The pond water level will be maintained at the invert of the outlet pipe or lower
and a maximum depth of 20'. The settling pond and outlet pipes will be monitored
accordingly and sediment will be removed as needed. The outlet pipe will be maintained
to specifications of the Mine Plan. The outlet pipe will be checked on a regular basis and
maintained as needed.
Discharge Monitoring
Discharge monitoring and reporting will be performed as specified in Table 1. If the
effluent limitations are greater than specified in Table 2 the monitoring frequency will be
modified to monthly monitoring of the effluents.
Monitoring Reports
Discharge monitoring results in accordance with the terms of this permit, NCG020000,
shall be submitted no later than 30 days from the end of the monitoring period. Duplicate
signed copies of all reports required shall be submitted to the NC DENR Division of
Water Quality, Water Quality Section, ATTENTION: Central Files, 1617 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617.
Jeff Brown will report orally any noncompliance within 24 hours Jeff Brown becomes

Seeding Specification Report
Prepared for Walton Engineering (for Onslow Sands, Inc)
Located at the end of Bellmont Avenue,
Midway Park
Onslow County, NC
Obiective:
The objective of this vegetation plan is to economically establish a low
maintenance perennial plant cover to control runoff, decrease sediment erosion: into
adjoining wetland areas, and permanently stabilize the land parcel with naturalized or
native plant species.
Soil Preparation.
Al} stones; stici:s, roots. or other trash greater in size than v inches on any
side shouid be removed in the area: to iDe seeded
soil test sino��ic b ,h ain=d on �= all m{nirig ate, tivities and land grading is
Sol" plete • r}` SO! usin, i tines following guideliine Specified
or as outlined by the North Iarojirla Deoartmen of Aario ilt+ure. Use iron or stainless
steel tools. Use tools to sample dn, soil in areau of 10 acres or less. Avoid combining
soil; of uifierert yces a, �dlor treatment histories. For each sample, collect 20 or more
cores at the appropriate depth {6"—S" for disturbed soil). N/iiix cores in a. plastic bucket
(do not use metal containers to mix soil subsamples), then rill an NCDA sample box
or similar cardboard container with 16 to 20 ounces of the soil mixture. Soil samples
can be sent to the NCDA, Agronomic Section, 1040 Mail Service Center, Raleigh,
NC 27699-1040.
Soil amendments recommended by the NCDA soil report should be applied.
in the absence of a soil report, apply the following amendments; 2 tons of
dolomitic limestone and 1.5 ton of 5-10-10 (or fertilizer equivalent) with added trace
elements per acre. All areas to be vegetated should be tilled to a depth of 4-6 inches
immediately following the addition of soil amendments to incorporate into soil.
Seedinc '
Fresh viable seed should be used. Seed can be broadcast or drilled.
However; best establishment and germination will likely occur if seed drills are"Used
to plant. The following mixture of perennial and annual seed (rye grain) will allow for �I
rapid establishment, harsh weath conditions, and difference:. in soil, fertilit�t, Oht, �
and soil moisture. The composition and seed mixture may neeU to be changed to
meet neW environmental or Sall condition-,, imposed bar the mining process. In`

forts in the future. The use of turfgrass sod to stabilize slopes to ponds or other water
interface areas should also be considered if persistent erosion is a major problem.
Winter, Spring, or Fall Seed Mixture (per acre):
Tall Fescue 100 pounds
Bahiagrass 25 pounds
Bermudagrass
Rye grain
Summer Mixture (per acre)

Mulch newly seeded areas with clean weed -tree wheat straw. use a rate of
90 pounds of wheat straw per 1,000 square feet or 4,000 pounds par acre
immediately following seed,inC. if seed are planted using a Seed drill, substantialill
le -SS (50 c) wheat straw will needed to ensure a raol id turfarass stanri.
Maintenance
Plan to refertilize with 500 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer the spring or summer
immediately following seediing establishment. Mowing is optional', mow turf at 4-6
inches or as desired. Lack of mowing will allow native trees to reseed and establish in
the area. Once vegetation is established and the site is stabilized, consideration can
be given to winter planting bare root seedling loblolly pine, long leaf pine, native Oak
species, bald cypress, sweet gum, or other native tree species.
